Tavla, the Turkish form of casino backgammon is very similar to western backgammon except for a few differences. In Tavla rules, the winner of the opening roll, rolls the dice again when he takes his actual first turn. Second, there is no “hit and run” in the player’s home board, as there is in western versions of the game. Third, the winner gets one point for a normal win and two points for a gammon win, there is no backgammon win. Lastly, there is no doubling cube. Otherwise, tabvla rules, the setup, board, etc., are pretty much identical to the traditional western casino board game.

Tavla rules are pretty straightforward and easy to learn, especially if you have played another version of backgammon before. Each player starts with pieces set up on the opponent’s side. There are 6 rows on each side of one player’s side of the board. The setup is as follow: 2 pieces on the 1st line of their opponent, 5 pieces on the 12th line of their opponent, 3 pieces on their own 8th line and 5 checkers on their own 6th line.

The object of tavla is to move all of your pieces onto your side and then move them off the board so the first player to remove all his pieces from the board wins. Because of the strategy necessary to play tavla, many players are starting to play it alongside their favorite casino and poker games that are also available online. The game is played with dice and players move the amount of times that match the number on the dice. Players can only land on open points.
